Do yourself and your family a favor during the Christmas holidays and turn off the idiot box televisions.
They only poison the holiday, which in my family of Roman Catholics is important and sacred, with visions of materialism, vanity, sex, and product sales.
If you watch for one hour you will hear the word Christmas said about 50 times…every commercial, new broadcast, movie, sitcom, etc. Just think about the people who are sitting at their corporate desks writing this stuff for consumption. Do you think they know or care about the true meaning? I don’t. I think they are laughing as people dig into their wallets to overpay for their worthless goods and services.
They target the weakest of us…our children.
The retail industry makes about 65% of their total sales for the year in December. And, they put out every insulting product rip-off you can imagine and mark it up about 2000%.
The day after Christmas the airplanes are full of greedy, slimy snake-oil salesman flying to Florida all singing “What a friend we have in Jesus.”
Turn it off.
